Travellers have enjoyed drinking and dining at the Bull Hotel since 1688. We invite you to continue that tradition in our signature Beeches Restaurant, cosy Jack Shrimpton Bar and relaxing Conservatory Lounge.

Modern cuisine from breakfast to dinner

Join us for breakfast, lunch and dinner at Beeches Restaurant, where our head chef conjures up a modern menu of British and Mediterranean cuisine. Beeches has held an AA Rosette since March 2012.

Jazz Sunday lunch is a popular occasion, with a full carvery and live music from the Nigel Fox Trio.

A drink before dinner

Named after a 17th-century highwayman, Jack Shrimpton Bar has a country pub feel and a roaring fire in winter. You can sample real ales from local microbreweries and settle down to watch live sports while enjoying a freshly made sandwich or snack.

On the first Sunday of every month you can join in a fun trivia quiz night, starting at 7pm. Come as a team of four or join up with others on the night.

Afternoon tea and al fresco drinks

In the light-filled Conservatory Lounge you can enjoy afternoon tea, a cocktail or light meal at any time. On sunny days, the garden terrace is a pleasant spot to eat and drink.

Private dining

The Bull’s flexible private dining rooms are perfect for lunch meetings, celebrations and receptions. We host spectacular Christmas parties and weddings, as well as barbecues in the garden.

Tea is grown in countless regions around the world, but none are as satisfying to the palate as Ceylon Tea. The tea plant >was first introduced to Ceylon (Sri Lanka) by a young Scot, James Taylor from Laurencekirk, Kincardineshire in 1867. The young Scot had arrived in Ceylon in 1852 and settled on the Loolecondera estate near Kandy.

Today the Bull Hotel offers a fine range of teas from P.M.David Silva & Sons who have worked with plantations in Ceylon for over 60 years. Our teas not only create an exhilarating sensual experience, moreover, they tell a tale of an untold British legend.

Planters’ Afternoon

Planters’ Green Tea

Crafted to fully satisfy the green tea connoisseur, a large leaf tea curled and pan heated to produce a light mellow brew with a delicate flavour and aroma, or as an after dinner drink.

Lovers Leap

This tea’s origins lie in the legendary tragedy that befell two star crossed lovers who leapt to their death amid the backdrop of an exquisite waterfall, the crowned jewel of the estate. Cultivated in the “Champagne” district at 6000ft, this is a wisp tea, which boasts an inimitable mentholated essence and aroma. The tea is best drunk without milk for an immeasurable taste.
